Chapter 55: Capture Xiang Yu alive and destroy Zhang Chu's regime
Armed from toes to teeth, the Iron Float was like a battlefield tank, and the rebels were knocked into the air, pierced through the body by sharp weapons, or trampled by war horses, and killed and wounded.
Equipped with the Three Treasures of the Horse and the Ring Head Sword, the Great Qin Iron Cavalry is also extremely amazing in combat effectiveness.
The first to bear the brunt is the 8,000 elite Jiangdong soldiers.
Xiang Yu, who was charging ahead, even if he was brave and powerful, but when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but be shocked!
These horses are all heavily armored and not afraid of arrows, what kind of monsters are they?!
Even Xiang Yu was like this, not to mention the ordinary soldiers of the rebel army.
They were all frightened by the Iron Float......
……
Chen County, in the royal palace.
now
Fan Zeng was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, pointed to Chen Sheng, the king of Zhang Chu who was sitting on the throne, and shouted:
"King Zhang Chu, hurry up and send troops!
At this time, General Xiang has launched a fierce attack on Changping City, and without your cooperation, they will not be able to successfully defeat the Qin army!
King Zhang Chu, don't hesitate any longer!
If General Xiang's side is defeated, your Chen County side will not be spared! ”
Fan Zeng was indeed very angry, and a few days ago, King Zhang Chu had promised to send troops at sunrise with General Xiang of Changping City to launch a fierce attack on the Qin army.
This battle will be the ultimate decisive battle between Xiang Liang, Chen Sheng, and the Qin army.
But half a day has passed since the agreed time to send troops, and King Zhang Chu has not yet dispatched a single soldier.
Once Han Xin's side learned that King Zhang Chu would not send troops, he would definitely transfer most of the elite of the Qin army to Changping City, and the general would be wiped out.
Fan Zeng was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Zhou Wen also stood up and admonished: "King, let's send troops, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, General Xiang is defeated, and the Qin army can concentrate all its strength to deal with my Zhang Chuguo!" ”
A small number of other far-sighted people in the Zhang Chu regime also chimed in.
However, Qin Jia and other more selfish generals supported Chen Sheng's decision.
Chen Shengdao:
"Well, the widow has his own decision on this matter, and at the right time, he will send troops!
Now, the time is not yet ripe! ”
He wants to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and reap the benefits of the fisherman.
Nearly 100,000 troops led by Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew in Western Chu can fight well, and their combat effectiveness is far above that of Zhang Chu's army.
Of course, the Western Chu rebel army itself will also be heavily damaged in the course of fierce battles with the Qin army, and even the entire army will be annihilated.
Chen Sheng had long been jealous of the forces of Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu's uncles and nephews, and after sensing that they had come to Zhang Chuguo, he had already revealed his intention to replace them.
Now, Chen Sheng can take this opportunity to get rid of Xiang Liang and lose a lot of Qin troops.
It was also possible to take advantage of the fact that the Qin army was busy fighting a decisive battle with Xiang Liang, and Chen Sheng sent his own army to open a channel of contact with other rebel forces in the outside world to obtain grain, grass and soldiers.
In addition, Chen Sheng also decided that if the Qin army suffered heavy losses after this battle, he called on other rebels to enter the state of Zhang Chu and join forces to launch a comprehensive counterattack against the Qin army.
This is a ploy that kills multiple birds with one stone.
Chen Sheng was very proud.
Of course, this is just his dream.
After finishing speaking, Chen Sheng threw off his sleeves, left the palace, and went to the city to check the military situation in person.
Fan Zeng couldn't hold back any longer, jumped up and scolded:
"Countryside erectors, insufficient and conspiracy! Deficiencies and conspiracy! The rebels of the world will all be buried in your hands! ”
Fan Zeng didn't expect that Chen Sheng, the king of Zhang Chu, would be selfish and disregard the overall situation to such a point!
Zhou Wen and other people of insight were also extremely disappointed in Chen Sheng.
They didn't expect that King Zhang Chu would be selfish and narrow-minded!
Chen Sheng paused, turned around, his face was extremely unkind, stared at Fan Zeng tightly, and shouted:
"Come on, take this old man down to the widow, put him on death row, and when I, Zhang Chuguo, fully counterattack the Qin army, I will take his head and sacrifice the flag!"
……
The Battle of Changping City lasted for a day and a night before it ended.
In the case that Han Xinfang invested nearly 200,000 troops, and there were a large number of Qin army iron cavalry equipped with the three treasures in the horse and the ring head sword, in the end, he completely defeated Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu of Western Chu.
More than 50,000 rebels were eliminated and nearly 30,000 were captured.
Xiang Liang, the general of Western Chu, and Xiang Yu, the fierce general of the world, were also captured.
Long and other Western Chu generals were killed in battle.
On the Qin side, 5,000 soldiers were killed and 20,000 were wounded.
Among them, more than 100 of the Iron Floating Slaughter died, four warriors who cultivated the Dragon Elephant Prajna to the fourth layer also died, and Wang Yuan, the 2500 Lord of the Iron Floating Slaughter, was also injured.
There were dozens of Tiefutu who died at the hands of Xiang Yu, and the three warriors also died at his hands, and Wang Yuan was also injured by the battle with Xiang Yu.
I have to say that Xiang Yu is a well-deserved fierce general.
Pull out the mountains and cover the world.
The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.
Han Xin glanced at Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang, who were escorted to the front of him, who were very unconvinced, and said in a deep voice: "Escort these two rebel army thieves back to Xianyang, and wait for Your Majesty to send them down!" ”
"No!" A general bowed.
Before Xiang Yu was pushed out of the Chinese army's big tent, he shouted: "Han Xin, what is the name of the cavalry in full armor?" But you trained? ”
When Han Xin heard this, his eyes reflected admiration and awe, and said:
"Its name is Tiefutu, and it is a brand-new cavalry unit designed and invented by His Majesty Emperor Shenwu!"
Xiang Yu didn't say anything more, and left with a complicated face.
In this battle, the reason why the Western Chu rebel army was defeated so quickly had a lot to do with the sudden appearance of this almost killing machine-like Iron Floating Cavalry.
Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang did not escape, also because they were besieged by Tiefutu.
Xiang Liang sighed leisurely: "Great Qin has Emperor Shenwu here, and no one can overthrow it!" ”
In his tone, there is loneliness and helplessness!
Xiang Liang got the information before:
Emperor Yanshenwu Fusu invented the Three Treasures in the Horse and the Ring Head Sword, equipped the cavalry, and made the cavalry invincible;
Now, he heard that Emperor Shenwu had invented the Iron Floating Massage.
In addition, Emperor Shenwu had a discerning eye for talents, and changed commanders in an eclectic manner, so that Han Xin, an unknown person, replaced the famous general Meng Tian.
Everything proves that this Shenwu Emperor is a genius and invincible.
In the face of such an enemy, Xiang Liang couldn't help but feel a deep sense of powerlessness......
After escorting Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew away, Han Xin said in a deep voice: "Gather all the generals to discuss the matter of attacking Chen Sheng, the king of Zhang Chu!" ”
Han Xin wanted to annihilate the rebel army of Western Chu, capture the might of Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu alive, and conquer Chen County in one go.
He thought that Chen Sheng and the others would be frightened when they got the news.
"No!" The armor took the order and departed.
Take a quick half-day break.
Han Xin personally led 150,000 Great Qin Ruishi to Chen County, wanting to wipe out Chen Sheng's department in one fell swoop and complete the task assigned by His Majesty.
Half a day ago, he got the news from Zhang Han that Chen Sheng did not go out of the city to fight the Qin army.
All of this was expected by Han Xin.
Chen Sheng is extremely suspicious and selfish.
Five days later.
The general Han Xin and the general Zhang Han led the Great Qin Ruishi into Chen County.
Chen Sheng, the king of Zhang Chu, died by self-immolation.
So far, the two largest rebel armies in Daqin have all been wiped out by Han Xin, and it took less than half a year.
